is this a common occurrence in japanese society, namely high schoolers? looking down on older and/or non-mainstream pop music? at least in the us, old music is very much appreciated and loved, to the point where people wear older band merch even if they don't listen or gate-keep older music.

Consider my disbelief suspended, this is hella cute

I relate to this in two ways
It kinda reminds me when some of us were kids and or teens, liking anime was pretty much an invitation for being mocked... I also remember letting people check my playlists a few times when I was younger and friendless. They would always ow-key make fun of me for having stuff like weird experimental music and old blues records mixed in there and not one pop song current to the time.

Finding people who you can talk freely to about the stuff you like is always liberating

A boy interested in citypop? That's some good taste

If the protagonist wasn't Chad, the story would be more relatable.

idk...from my experience (guy who finished in high school and in college rn)...i haven't seen any kids listening/watching old stuff...idt they look down on them or tell them lame but as far as enjoying them i haven't seen any

I don't think he ever gave her back her train pass

Eh, I think he's overthinking it. If he already has a good reputation as one of the "popular" kids, I don't think his classmates would just suddenly 180 their treatment of him just because he has quirky music tastes or a strange hobby. Sure, there might be some lighthearted jabs at him being weird, but I doubt they would actually start being super derisive and begin excluding him.
